Thank Goodness for Plastic Ornaments

Apparently purchasing a huge container of plastic Christmas ornaments during our first year of marriage was ingenuous of me. While I thought at the time it was a cheap way to fill up the tree when we had nothing to decorate with, it turned out to be the perfect ornaments when a toddler comes to help decorate the tree.

We had a good time decorating the tree and seeing the tree through Elizabeth's eyes with all the wonder only a child can bring. I also learned a few things about decorating a tree with a toddler -- like ornament throwing and light pulling.

Decorating is Fun!

Elizabeth would throw the ornaments to see if they would stay and then clap & smile!

This decorating is hard work. Elizabeth liked using the presents as a seat. Sorry Kim.... some of the presents got a little squashed!
